Undergraduate Program: Tracks

Questions?

The Bioengineering Undergraduate Program has established tracks to provide guidance to students who aim to specialize in a particular sub-field of bioengineering. Aligning with a track may improve career awareness and readiness while improving a student’s resume. The tracks categorize the 2 foundational courses and 7 electives into career-specific sets. All of the required bioengineering core courses must be completed, regardless of the track selected. While students are highly encouraged to select a track, one need not be followed to satisfy the requirements of the program. Each track has a faculty leader. Questions about the track, including the addition of new courses to a track, should be directed to the track leader.

For students who were admitted before Spring 2016 and who have chosen to remain on the pre-2016 curriculum, the track courses listed below are the same; however, students need only take two of the bioengineering electives (the other credits are utilized by two additional foundational courses as compared to the post-2016 curriculum).

1. Pending course availability
2. Must be approved for track compliance by track leader
3. Cannot be double-counted with other requirements
4. At least one course must be 3xx or higher
5. Upon approval
